One thing I like in the UK is the breakfast you get in proper B&Bs. I love it!||You start with juice. Orange, apple, maybe ananas ...||Then you swith over to cereals. …

Best nights sleep I've had for a while! Owner is super lovely and friendly. Rooms are clean, comfortable but homey in a quiet location. Short walk back to Union St and you're back in the hustle and bustle.
